Summary
👤
SeniorJaap-henk Hoepman is a visiting professor and associate professor specializing in privacy-enhancing protocols and privacy by design, with a career bridging theoretical computer science, law, and creative practice. He combines academic rigor with public engagement—publishing in scientific journals and popular outlets, speaking internationally, and occasionally acting as a media security expert. A serial collaborator and institution builder, he co-founded the Privacy & Identity Lab, the Kerckhoffs Institute master’s programme, and the art-science initiative WAMS, and serves on advisory boards like Bits of Freedom. His research is practice-driven, focusing on identity management and privacy for the Internet of Things, and he is unafraid to take contrarian positions to clarify policy and design trade-offs. Based in the Groningen area, he also composes music, designs visuals, and trains in Okinawan Goju Ryu, reflecting a persistent curiosity that informs his interdisciplinary approach.
